hello everyone!

i was wondering if there is a guide to specify each type of FCS and what does it do? and where is it best to be used especilly the finder type?

It pretty much shoots in the general direction of your click and makes a mossberg 500 persuader look like it has good spread with buckshot at 50 yards....


Quite. I also always freaking forget changing the FCS on Neut ships when I use them for fun, and it piss me off something hard.

They sadly improved Auto-FCS spread with a fail patch, and more and more auto-CL2, auto CA appeared...But they are still hard food to any good aiming FCS user.

o.O

Most of the CLs out there have more space between their R-mounts than the entire beam length of DDs and FFs, which means with auto your shells are about twice as likely to miss. Not to mention that the best XP for a CL, by which I mean GB AA, is impossible with auto FCS because you can't control your angles.


Oh, I forgot to mention that I always put rear guns off. No need at all.
Manual fcs users can`t follow DD/CLs going around at max speed.
In the same time auto fcs users shoot continuous fire, while changing angles (you need not re-push space bar after change angle).

solid argument


Not argument, but ur head.


Cruising at half firepower for laziness and being unable to correctly use the aiming FCS -> You're doing it right!

Playing NF -> You are doing it so very wrong.


Stop trying to bring people down to your level, your tips are about the worst thing a new players can listen too.


rofl... I would quit using auto, if my win rate goes under 70%... I`m just trying to pull pathetic ppl up. :)
Of course I can use aiming fcs also. I love having plenty of choice.

Do you have a mere thought that you are NOT good at this game and actually doing wildly tickling things even now? Hmm? :)

So I take it you mainly play blitz? You play on Kaiser on Nebraska? Also win rate means next to nothing, since you can Disconnect loss.

If you play on kaiser, I'd very much like a small one vs one with you, no bet asked, ship class of your choice, one you think using auto is better than using manual on, safe FF->DD1.

lol...disconnecta
Disconnecting is worthless for me because I`m too lazy.
And yes, I live in blitz world mainly.

Come Nebraska. I have no interest in Kaiser.

Blitz isnt a competitive game mode, I,m sorry to say.

Leveling KM, I went from D-Land to out of blitz with about 5 loss...My moltke sank once.

So auto might work there, but in BB, in GBs? Forget it. Please refrain from giving advice to people that are probably going to level past lvl 60.
